Education is the foundation and catalyst for changing the state of human rights in the world, but educators need effective materials and tools they can use to easily incorporate human rights in their curriculum. Recognizing this, United for Human Rights has the answer: the Bringing Human Rights to Life Education Package. Free to educators, it gives teachers and educators everywhere a resource to help bring the concepts of human rights to life and make them a reality in the hearts, minds and actions of those who study the subject.

Knowledge of the problem is the first step in moving people into action to remedy it and this package has been designed to provide that knowledge.

Included therein:

An Educator's Guide

The Story of Human Rights, a powerful film which defines human rights for anyone

Informational booklets

Discussion questions

Assingments that require application of theory

Glossary of terms, references to print and online resources

The Bringing Human Rights to Life Education Package is designed for high school senior and college-level classes and adult community instruction. It may be used as a full course or as a supplemental resource in another curriculum.

The package’s components are produced to the highest quality and durability. It is through donations from those who support our program that enables United for Human Rights to provide these valuable teaching tools free of charge to teachers, professors and qualified community educators. It is thus expected that participating educators agree to provide results of their use of this program and its materials. Documentation would include photographs and video footage of program application and outcomes, and educator testimonials that promote best practices and results to others. In this way, each educator’s successes can be shared and expanded upon.
